Women's Basketball Kicks Off Season at Memphis Madness

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – In front of a sold-out crowd, the 2019-20 University of Memphis women's basketball team was introduced to fans for the first time Thursday evening as part of Memphis Madness presented by Ashley HomeStore.

"It's about them," said head coach Melissa McFerrin on the evening. "I enjoy it because I see it in their (the players) eyes and how excited they are. We've have had very spirited practices the last couple of days and some pretty spirited competitions. You can see how much all of the players enjoy this."

The evening started on the plaza with a Blue Carpet Experience featuring live music, former player autographs and a photo station.
